finding best location for T-Mobile home Internet gateway
I'm confused about moving the unit around the house to find the best location. To do this must the unit be plugged in, or can it be done using battery power only? It seems crazy to have to walk aroun...

Unplugged mine and it powers off and won't power back on until I plug it back in. Then I have to wait for it to boot back up, makes moving it around to check the signal strength a PITA.
Apparently, the Arcadyan does not have a battery like the Nokia does.
Options include using a very long extension cord, or a portable battery inverter, like the Ryobi.
